FF Corse‘s Toby Tarrant-Willis & Charlie Holllings held on to take 1st in Class and an amazing 3rd overall in the first round of the British Endurance Championship at Silverstone this weekend.

The FF Corse run car took pole position and Toby T-W held the lead for the first stint until pitting after 40 minutes. With the other cars in class able to run much longer stints between refueling the pressure was on Charlie & Toby to work their way back up the order, whilst trying to conserve fuel.

The battle raged for the next two hours, with the lead see sawing at every pit stop. Eventually the FF Corse crew extended enough of a lead that they were able to stop for their final fuel stop (one more than their rivals) and resume in first place, a position they would hold and extend to the end.
